A South Bay community just cannot catch a break.

Residents at the Hometown American Mobile Home Park in San Jose late Monday were still without water service after crews working on a road improvement project accidentally ruptured a water line.

"It makes me very upset. I have kids and I have to go to work," resident Rosemary Castro said. "I can't shower. I haven't showered."

Residents have resorted to filling buckets with pool water to keep toilets flushing.
